Abstract

Though agile development often works well initially, maintaining and nurturing a healthy culture is key to the success of any agile project. As a project’s culture is affected by many forces, this challenge is often quite difficult. Varying skills sets, egos, schedules, and external project dependencies are just a few issues that must be addressed by those trying to promote or maintain the cultural health of an agile project. The intent of this workshop was to use shared experiences to create a list of tools and tactics useful in managing culture on agile projects.
